The Hartford Parks & Recreation Department would like to know how theyare doing.

As a citizen of the Town Parks & Rec values your input and is asking the community to take a few minutes to complete an important community wide survey. The survey will assist in determining citizen needs, usage and priorities for the parks and recreation system. 

The multiple choice survey is just over 30 questions and shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to complete.

Parks & Rec appreciates you taking the time to complete their survey and will share the results. For questions, please contact the Parks & Recreation Office at 802-295-5036.
